Homebrew blargSnes -- SNES emulator for the 3DS (WIP)

[GreatCrippler]

So, I appreciate the thought behind this, and i hope it grows into a great SNES emulator. That said, for the time being, is there any advantage to using emulators like this, and 3DNes? I am not trying to be discouraging, as I am glad for the start up of 3DS Homebrew, but it seems I am better off with SCDS2 until things progress a lot.

It doesn't work on the homebrew launcher
Not sure if it's just the version I have or what because the previous version I had would freeze whenever I tried to load a game

I'm using the homebrew launcher with latest unofficial build of blargsnes. Super Metroid works just fine.

Scaling looking damn good

I guess it's whatever version I had that i downloaded from somewhere that didn't work
I tried Ewo's version and it runs perfectly
Guess I shouldn't download from random sites

Apparently blargSnes doesn't like Kirby's Return to Dreamland 3 http://imgur.com/evp06N7

Hey guys, do we have a list of games that are fully compatible with firmware 1.1 (Staple's current release). I've tried a couple games but they either don't start or freeze a few minutes in (ALTTP, Tactics Ogre, Live a Live). Thanks!

Add kirby's return to dream land and castlevania 4 to that list

no super castlevania 4 works fine for me, so does dracula x

Because it uses the SA-1 chip, which hasn't been emulated. The same chip is used in games like Super Mario RPG and Kirby's Super Star.

Mine doesn't start up, it just shows a black screen...
EDIT: Apparently I have no patience, it works after waiting 10 seconds

Yeah, pretty much any game that uses a special chip, including games like Super Mario Kart, will not work (or not properly anyways).

Yep, S-DD1, SA-1, Cx4, DSP-1, SuperFX/2, etc heh. Yeah, I'd like to see what the 3DS can do about those chips, but again, no pressure.

I don't think this is supposed to happen either http://imgur.com/ooBQiIc

That link's dead The game likely doesn't have its chip emulated.

Hey people, would you please stop spreading unstable Git builds? Thank you.


In particular, there's an issue that popped out of nowhere in the last few revisions, Earthbound started acting like the left key is always pressed. I will have to investigate into that shit.


On a more positive note, scaling options are finally configurable. I also added support for the 256x239 resolution and proper PAL timings while I was at it.

Uh, what game is that though? If it's Super Metroid, then, well, you might be using a bad build.
